Pendimethalin is a selective herbicide that is used to control a wide range of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in various crops, ornamental plants, and turf. It works by inhibiting cell division and growth in the target plants, leading to their death. Pendimethalin is commonly used in agriculture, horticulture, and landscaping to prevent weed growth and protect crops and plants. It is available in various formulations, including liquid concentrates and granules, and is typically applied to the soil prior to or after planting. Proper application and adherence to safety guidelines are important when using pendimethalin to minimize potential risks to non-target plants and animals.
